UPDATE: Iggy Azalea bails on three Beyonce support dates – full details here.
After weeks of speculation and increasingly confusing disputes between promoters and the rapper herself, Australian hip-hop artist Iggy Azalea has officially announced that she will be playing one headline show at Trak Live Lounge in Melbourne.
Earlier this month, reports came through that Azalea would be playing a string of East Coast shows in addition to her dates supporting Beyonce on her upcoming Mrs. Carter world tour. Azalea was expected to play Trak Live Lounge, The Arena and The Metro.
The Aussie ex-pat then disputed the claims made by an apparently rogue promoter, and told fans not to purchase tickets, tweeting “Please don’t buy any tickets unless they are to BEYONCE as of right now. If I add any shows, I’ll be the first to let you know.”
Azalea is now scheduled to play one show on Friday, 25th October at Trak Lounge Bar in Toorak, Melbourne, immediately following her support slot for Beyonce at Rod Laver Arena. Tickets go on sale Friday, 11th October and are priced at $49 + fees and charges.
Hailing from northern New South Wales, Azalea ran away to the US at age 15 to become a hip hop star. Fast-forward to today and she’s one of the rap game’s fastest rising stars, with profiles in Miss Vogue and Complex and modelling campaigns booked for Levi’s and House of Holland.
